Holiday Mailing Deadlines Suggested Christmas mailing deadlines for domestic parcels and letter mail have been advanced because of an ex­ ceptionally high mail volume, according to Postmaster LeRoy M. Smith. The suggested Christmas mailing deadline is Dec. 10 for. letter mail and greeting cards intended for delivery by Christmas. "The impact of greatly in­ creased mail volumes generated by the fifteen-state United Parcel service strike in •he east and south, and its residual effect on other parts of the country compels U S to ask the public to mail even earlier than normal," Smith said. Parcel volume has already more than doubled in the strike area and is up significantly nationwide, and letter mail is also on the increase, according to Smith. He said that while letter mail will continue to receive priority treatment, the increase in mail from the general public, added to the unprecedented business mail volume generated by the strike, could result in the use of many postal facilities normally dedicated to letter mail to prevent an unmanagable backlog of parcels "I strongly urge the public to deposit letters and greeting cards by Dec. 10 to assure they are delivered by Christmas," Postmaster Smith said.
